Floor & skirting joints in Earnley, West Sussex
Sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints in Earnley, with a one-year guarantee on every job. Call for a quick quote.
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
Why it’s worth doing now in Earnley
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead and keeps the joint sealed. Around Earnley, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

- We agree the colour with you first

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Earnley
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. If you are dealing with open joints around bathroom floor edges and gaps at thresholds between rooms, we can put it right, on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors alike.
In a village or hamlet like Earnley, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Earnley
Floors around West Sussex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you look after a building such as East Wittering Community Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. For buildings such as Earnley Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Surface by surface
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. We rake out that line and seal it.
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.

Related advice
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
Check the joints after the first winter. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.
